As well as celebrating 10 years of being in the city and 600 student enrolments across Years 7-12 in 2025, St George’s Anglican Grammar School is branching out to a new nearby campus.
The bigger, purpose-built campus will take vertical schooling to the next level in WA – with Stage One to open at the start of Semester Two. Five state-of-the-art Science laboratories will spring to life, along with a Performing Arts floor with new dance and drama spaces, a music recording studio, rehearsal rooms and lots of space for collaboration and performance. There will also be a bespoke Maths teaching floor, and new electives offered including Food Technology, Woodwork and Mechatronics.
The additional campus will include a second canteen with an outside courtyard, a Year 12 common room and multiple outdoor areas for students of all year groups. With 441 Murray Street located only 700 metres away from the current location at 50 William Street, students will initially divide their time between the two campuses.
“We have trialled the route at various times of the school day, and it is a six-minute walk from the main school building,” Principal Mrs Tina Campbell said.
“We will most definitely be interacting much more with the city from Semester Two, and with so much on the calendar, it is an exciting time to be part of this school community,” she said.
To celebrate 10 years in the city, St George’s has planned several key events including the launch of the school’s first-ever parent association, Friends of St George’s. New traditions such as an annual Parent Sundowner at 441 Murray St and celebratory badges, are among an array of initiatives. Recently, bright red bus backs and an inner-city billboard declared: “10 Years in the City and Loving It’’ with students thrilled to be part of the promotion.
Mrs Campbell said that while St George’s was growing, it would remain true to its foundation of being a close-knit community in the heart of the City of Perth.
